"Fate" is a fickle faire, yes. Not too particular on whose shoulder she alights. Some things, we can make happen and some things just happen. *wink* Hey there, Virtual Princess. Write on.....  |

This is a very very simple question to answer - bad people dont mind harming people to get good things. Question answered! - and good people are not selfish and therefore wont harm or inconvenience others for their own gain.  |

because EVERYTHING happens for a reason, we just don't see what that reason is when we want to... we may perceive something to be good/bad at one moment but later on, that good/bad becomes what it is meant to be...  |

It may appear that good things happen to bad people because they are always the ones that are willing to cheat, steal etc, and take the quick and easy route to get what they want. "Good" people generally do what is right, which often, as I have personally found, can take longer than we would sometimes like. But what people tend to forget is that it's not the destination, but the route we take to get there that defines who we are.  |

Because the universe doesn't operate like a kindergarten teacher-- you don't get gold stars everytime you something right or stuck in the corner everytime you do something wrong. The chain of cause and effect is a vast a complicated thing. Anyhow, you don't do the right thing because you get rewarded for it, you do it because it's the right thing to do. At least, that's what Kant says.  |

I would like to know this too... I see this happen all the time. It amazes me, just like why do the drunk driver survives & the other innocent driver loses his life, that is my biggest question.... Thanks for the post.  |

Cause the bad ones don't really get the "good things" fairly. The way I see it is, everything happens for a reason so eventually something is gonna come back to them.  |

I agree with Mollycat too... its just one of those things... the innocent always lose... I know in the long run they do win but it don't make it easier when the innocent are killed or hurt... |
